its because we only allow for one character per person. Multi accounts are not allowed. And this is one of the ways to stop people from having multiaccounts.

you have a internet connection at home? Most internet providers also give emails. Or maybe you know someone with a payed email account, which you can borrow for the sign up. Once accepted into the game you can switch to whatever email you want.

I'm not paying to sign up for this!!! nobody uses @sympatico or @rogers or whatever it is anymore its all @hotmail, @MSN, or @yahoo Ect! I REALLY want to play this game! you shouldn't have such high security on a great game!!!

Obviously 2000+ people and growing DO use ISP e-mails. Or know people that do.

Almost all ISPs offer at least one e-mail account. Find it or get a friend to let you use theirs. I had to get a grandparent to let me use theirs, so please... Don't try to BS a way out of it. It won't work.

Guest/Visitor, you use Rogers and therefore do have access to a proper e-mail address. You don't need to pay any additional amount or anything. And once you have a Combine account you can set up a Contact e-mail address which can be a free mail so you will not be contacted at the ISP mail. You just need it for the initial registration.
